Kate Winslet to star in 'Labor Day'

Kate Winslet has signed on to star in the literary adaptation Labor Day.

The Titanic actress is to play a mother who, together with her young boy, meets a mysterious stranger and offers to help him, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Josh Brolin has been tapped to star in the adaptation of the Joyce Maynard novel as well, presumably as the stranger.

Up in the Air director Jason Reitman will helm the project, which has not been scheduled for release as of yet.

Winslet recently starred in the HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce. The actress's co-star Guy Pierce revealed in early June that Winslet was reluctant to show her breasts on camera, stating that the choreography was key in filming a love scene.
